Hello, I must replace the front discs+pads on my 2006 Disco3 2.7 TD.
I’m considering fitting Britpart performance drilled and grooved discs with EBC Ultimax pads. Can anyone offer opinion based on experience?
Thx

Std discs will do just fine, slotted/drilled always look rubbish once they have some wear on them.
Good upgrade is d3 v8 discs and new carrier and ebc greenstuff pads, ebc pads make next to no dust and stop the car well, do make pedal feel slightly softer though.

As above, don't bother. You'll be changing them every 25k miles anyway, so little point in using drilled and grooved discs.

Fitting the larger V8 discs will improve brake performance, and due to the larger area, will last a few k extra miles.
